USA for LCW via NZ - part 4

These chaps - for those of you who haven't seen the earlier posts they are 1/35 scale hard plastics - have now had a light black wash and a spray coat of varnish.
Given that this is my first attempt at painting complicated camo in this scale since about 1977 (and that didn't go well) I am quite pleased with them.
 6 figures = 1.5 platoons for Little Cold Wars.  With my other US figures I now have nearly two companies.

    Well having worn that uniform for a decade I can say, not bad!

    That looks really good Tim, the wash has toned down the contrasts nicely.

    Thanks - they look pleasingly scruffy.
